Honorable Philip Zegarelli, Mayor
Sleepy Hollow, New Yoik
Village Hall 28 Beekman Avenue
Sleepy Hollow, NY 10591

Mr. Mayor:

V1'

v*I am respectfully requesting an addition to the 2003-2004 Capital Projects Budget of $10,000 to repair
weather-related damage to Ambulance-13 (1994 Ford/E-One). This request is being made after
consultation with Village Treasurer Abe Zambrano.

I

Vi"3^ C ^ Q ^ " ^

As we have previously discussed, Ambulance-13 has sat outside the Ambulance Corps building for more
than 16 months. Despite the regular rotation of the rig intofeebuilding for "drying-out," water leakage and
condensation have rapidly deteriorated the emergency lights, antennas, wiring and circuit boards. We
presently have several significant problems with the main circuit board and berth light bars. These
problems technically place Ambulance-13 in violation of NYS Department of Health regulations mat
pertain to emergency warning equipment
Ambulance-13 is regularly rotated as the "primary" ambulance to avoid excessive wear on Ambulance-18.
It also enables us to stay in service while maintenance is being done to Ambulance-18. Ambulance-13 is
often used for mutual aid, standby duty and as the "second-out" rig. It is an integral part of Ambulance
Corps operations.
The request for capital funding is being made, upon the advice of Abe Zambrano, due to the fact mat me
projected cost of repairs ($10,000) would constitute approximately 20% ofthe Corps total operating budget
($49,760). Hundreds of dollars have been spent over the last few years in temporary repairs, but
unfortunately the problems have gotten progressively worse. In fact, partial emergency »jnmg ftgftfing
was lost on two mutual aid calls to Thomwood last Friday.

These repairs, along with the annotated completion of the additional garage, wfll enable die Corps to
continue to operate Ambulance -13. Thank you in advance for your cooperation in this endeavor.
